The game I want to run:
Beginner Friendly. Open and welcoming to players new to Call of Cthulhu. I’m more than willing to teach the system and you don’t even need the book. But you should grab the free Quick-Start Rules to get a basic familiarity with the system and genre.
Free Quick-Start PDF.
But don’t read the adventure. I will run beginning players through it.
Call of Cthulhu. A mystery-horror game set during the Roaring 20s and in the section of New England known as Lovecraft Country. Player characters will be relatively normal people taking on forces and beings far beyond their comprehension. They investigate the strange and unusual, discover dark secrets, and fight the monsters as best they can. But those secrets have a price: often madness and death. Strange murders, surreal locations, and nefarious cults abound.
Character-Focused, Plot-Driven Investigations. No over-arching plot, but we will be using modules, one-shots, and pulling from the nearly 40 years of Call of Cthulhu scenarios for our stories. These will be used as seeds and springboards to set up the story and get started, but play will unfold based on the PCs’ choices and actions. So no railroading or pre-scripted endings.
Rules. Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition.
